Equestria Guys
The Blood of a Hunter: Part 1
Load Full StoryNext ChapterHenry's Blog #9, Day 18:
I have yet to discover these so called "princesses" of this strange, magical land that is named, "Equestria". As I said in my last blog, the inhabitants are what appear to be horses. However, I've mostly seen Jennie's and no Stallions however. There are quite a few, like the big red Stallion that only appears to say, "Eeyup" and "Nnope." One Jenny that appeared to have rainbow colored hair and tail, with a cyan coat, told me that these aren't actually horses, but ponies. A magical land filled with ponies. Dear Arthur, if you are reading this, then I have clearly lost my mind and I do hope that I have not passed out on the neighbor's lawn once again. From what I was told from this cyan pony with wings, I think they are called pegasus or pegasi for it's plural form, there are at least 4 different princesses that have different powers. One has the power to raise the sun, the other has the power to raise the moon, one is love, and the other is friendship. Dear Lord, my daughter Rebecca would definitely love this-
"HUNTER!"
"WHAT MOM?!" yelled a kid with brown hair who was sitting on the toilet with a book in his hand.
"What is taking you so long!? Get out of the bathroom right now! You're brother is coming home for dinner!"
"Give me 5 more minutes! I'm in the middle of something here!"
"You've been in the bathroom for an hour now! What are you possibly doing-... On second thought, I don't want to know what you're doing in there! Just make sure and wipe up the mess, alright!"
"Oh go- geez mom! I'm not doing that! I'm reading a book!"
"Well do it in your room! Your brother is coming!"
"Alright!"
The kid known as Hunter got up from the toilet seat, to which he wasn't even using. His pants were already up and he was just in the bathroom to read a book, since everywhere else is too loud for him to concentrate.
"I can't even read a good book in peace nowadays. What has the world come to?" said Hunter as he exited the bathroom.
The school bell rang all around in Canterlot High, indicating that the 30 minute break started. Students all around either went to their friends or went into different classes to make up tests and quizzes or study.
Yep, this school was one hell of a school. It was mostly peaceful, friendly, and quiet-
"WE'RE GETTING A NEW STUDENT!?"
Okay nevermind.
"Yes Pinkie, we're getting a new student." said Sunset, trying to keep her hyper friend contained.
"OH I can't wait to throw him a party!" yelled Pinkie.
Sunset chuckled at her response.
"Yes Pinkie, I'm sure you can't wait."
At that moment, 4 other students came walking around the corner. Those students were non-other than Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity, and Fluttershy.
"Hey, what's going on?" asked Rainbow.
"We heard yelling, so we thought we check it out." added Fluttershy.
"Oh it's just Pinkie being Pinkie. She's excited that there's gonna be a new student here later today, with me giving him a tour of course." said Sunset.
"A new student?" asked Rainbow excitingly.
"Well ah'll be." added Applejack.
"I hope he's nice." said Fluttershy.
"Oh I'm sure he's nice Fluttershy. His principal from his other school said he has a good record and constantly brings life at the school." responded Sunset.
"What does he mean by that dear?" asked Rarity.
"I don't know. But he is a good student, though he is slow and all."
"Well I think I found my job on prepping him up to fit with us if he's slow." said Rainbow, jabbing her thumb onto her chest.
"Uh no Rainbow. I mean he's mentally slow. He doesn't get the point at first glance and he has a delayed reaction sometimes. He has quite the bit of strength and stamina from what Celestia told me." replied Sunset.
"Do you know what his name is darling?" asked Rarity.
"Hunter Blood I think. He should be here by now, probably up front." said Sunset.
"He's already here?!" asked Pinkie excitingly.
"Yes Pinkie he's here. He got here this morning and is waiting for a tour from me. Which reminds me, I better go look for him. You wanna come?"
"Uh-huh." the girls said in union.
The girls all walked to main entrance to the school where they saw students roaming. Students all from their school, but no Hunter Blood. Sunset looked everywhere, only to see the Athletes, some Techies, Wiz Kid and Curly Winds talking and laughing, but still no Hunter Blood.
"He should be here. Where is he?" asked Sunset.
"Found him!" yelled Pinkie, pointing to the main doors.
The girls looked where she was pointing and sure enough, they saw a kid with gray hoodie jacket, having brown hair, a white T-Shirt with a giant red blood drop on the middle, dark blue navy pants and black shoes. Beside him was a kid with orange spiky hair wearing a red zipped up jacket with a flame on the right side.
"How do you know that's him?" asked Rainbow.
"Because I've never seen him before, and I know everyone here." said Pinkie.
"Ain't that the truth." said Applejack.
"Well, I better introduce myself... and you guys of course." said Sunset as she and the rest of the girls walked towards him.
Hunter Blood was on his phone, tapping on it while holding it sideways, as if he was playing a game, with the kid next to him looking over.
"Excuse me, are you Hunter Blood?" asked Sunset as she she approached.
"What! Not again! I'm down! CRRIIIIPLLLLLLLLEEEEEE!" yelled Hunter.
"Oohh, so close." said the kid next to him.
Sunset and the girls looked at him, waiting for him to respond. Sunset thought he couldn't hear her so she decided to speak up again.
"Excuse me?" she said a little louder.
"Get me! Get me! OH!" yelled Hunter. (new Britney Spears song?)
"Excuse me!" said Sunset once again, a little bit louder.
"Woah, I'm a black guy?" asked Hunter.
"You just now noticed?" asked the kid next to him.
"Well, I don't look at myself very often. Does this mean I can say the N word without getting in trouble?"
"NO!" yelled Pinkie, causing Hunter to scream and drop his phone, only for the kid next to him to catch it. The kid handed Hunter his phone back, while they stared at the group.
"Don't do that! You scared me!" exclaimed Hunter.
"Whoops, sorry about that." apologized Pinkie.
"You must be Hunter Blood, am I correct?" asked Sunset.
"Yep, that is me. Hunter Something Blood." said Hunter profoundly.
"You don't know you're own middle name?" asked Rarity out of confusion, since everyone knows their names.
"N-no that is my middle name. My parents didn't really know what to call me since they said I just 'happened', and didn't come up with a name. So my dad named me Hunter while my mom called me Blood, for all the mess I made when I was born. The doctor asked what my middle name should be and my dad just said, 'Something'." explained Hunter.
Hearing this, caused a look of confusion amongst the group, including the kid beside him.
"That's just... wow." said the kid.
"Aren't you suppose to giving my tour?" asked Hunter to the kid.
"Actually, I'm your tour guide." said Sunset, raising a look of confusion from Hunter.
"What? I thought it was this guy. The paper said, 'Look for someone with fiery red hair', and I saw this guy. You're name isn't Sunset?" asked Hunter.
"My name's Heath Burns!" exclaimed Heath.
Hunter blinked at the sound of his name.
"Are you related to Mr. Burns?" asked Hunter.
"No." said Heath in a deadpanned voice.
"Excellent." said Hunter as he brought the tip of his fingers together as he gave Heath a glare while smiling deviously.
"So Hunter, I'd like to introduce myself and my friends. My name is Sunset Shimmer. This here is Rainbow Dash." said Sunset pointing to Rainbow Dash.
"Sup." she said.
"Applejack."
"Howdy."
"Pinkie Pie."
"HI!"
"Fluttershy."
"H-hello."
"And Rarity."
"Greetings darling."
"How ju do?" asked Hunter in a silly voice.
"So Hunter, should we get started on the tour?" asked Sunset.
"Are they coming?" asked Hunter, pointing the 5 girls.
"No they have class. I'm free because I volunteered to help you." replied Sunset.
"Alrighty then. Let's get this tour over with." said Hunter as he and Sunset walked away, leaving the 5 girls and Heath Burns.
They all stared at Hunter and Sunset walk away while she was giving him a tour.
"He seemed nice." said Pinkie.
After what felt like an hour, Sunset already introduced Hunter to the entire school, classrooms to computer lab, both second story and first story.
"Well Hunter, I think that covers everything. So, do you feel comfortable now?" asked Sunset.
Hunter gave her a blank expression, blinking and shaking his head, as if his blinking shook him out of a trance.
"Well at first, the thought of going to a new school, I thought it was going be like, neeeh, but when I saw the school first person I was like, aaahhh, but when I saw the inside of it, it went back down to, eeeehhhh." replied Hunter smiling.
Sunset gave him a dumbfounded look and really had nothing to say to that.
"What?" she managed to say.
At that moment, the bell rang and kids started walking out of classrooms, starting conversations with their peers. Hunter had to move out of the way just to not let people hit him.
"Where are they going?" asked Hunter.
"They're headed to the cafeteria for lunch. Which reminds me, would you want to sit with me and my friends for lunch. We'll get to know you some more?" asked Sunset.
"Hmm." said Hunter as he rubbed his chin with his fingers. "I suppose so."
"Great. We better get moving if we want to get lunch."
"Lead the way!"
They both stared at each other for a moment in silence, until Hunter broke it up.
"No I'm serious, lead the way. I have no idea where the cafeteria is."
"But I JUST gave you a tour." said Sunset.
"I have a bad memory and I get easily distrac- OOOO! THIS WINDOW!" Hunter exclaimed as he went over to the nearest window and pressed his face on it. "It's so shiny. It's the shiniest thing of all shininess... gg."
Sunset chuckled at his reaction to a window. She thought he was a funny, life-loving kind of guy, and she liked it.
Pretty much everyone already started eating their lunch or currently getting it from the lunch lady, Granny Smith. At one table, there were 5 girls, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, and Rarity, no shit.
"So then I said, oatmeal?! Are you serious?!" yelled Pinkie as she was telling a story.
The girls chuckled and giggled at her response.
"That's a good one Pinkie." said Applejack as she took a scoop of... apple, sauce or whatever that is.
"I mean, I'm up for eating any kinds of cookies, but oatmeal and raisins, I don't like them."
At that moment, Sunset and Hunter came walking to the their table, with Hunter eyeing his food with a surprised look. The girls seemed to notice this as he was acting strange, and the fact that his facial expression was surprised when he was just staring at food.
"What's the matter darling?" asked Rarity.
"This is actual food... ACTUAL FOOD! Back at my old school, we got food that didn't even qualify as food. I mean sure we got pizza, but it was so disgusting man. Like they literally took the crappiest pizza joint in town, and got like 20 stacks of uncooked pizza. Then there were hamburgers which they had these thin slices of meat and cold cheese. Basically it was prison food, and let me tell you, my school was like prison." explained Hunter.
"Wow... that sounds kind of..." Rarity couldn't think of the words to describe his school.
"Crappy?" finished Rainbow.
"Y-yes. What she said."
"Now sugarcube. Don't ya think yer over exaggeratin'? I mean I'm pretty sure the school wouldn't feed ya prison food. Exaggeratin' is Rarity's job." said Applejack.
"Hey!" yelped Rarity as she gave her friend a glare.
Hunter and Sunset sat next to each other as Hunter started drinking from his soda can.
"No man. I'm serious. My school sucked! We had lockers OUTSIDE and not inside. So that means you had to go in the rain to get your books and possibly walk across campus while getting you and your books wet. We didn't even have a cafeteria, I mean we did, but it didn't have a room with chairs. People usually ate outside on the benches, in the hallways, or in classrooms. And you had to PAY to get lunch. Here, you don't pay anything! No payment! This is the best high school ever!" exclaimed Hunter.
Sunset once again chuckled at his response, as he dove in on his food, unleashing a violent assault on the lunch tray.
"I'm glad you like this place. So tell us Hunter. What do you like to do for a living?' asked Sunset.
Hunter slurped up some spaghetti and swallowed the strand and looked at the girls.
"Eh, I kind of like to do a lot of stuff actually."
"Like what?" asked Sunset.
"Do you like soccer?" asked Rainbow.
"Hell no. I hate soccer." said Hunter.
Rainbow gave him a death glare, as if he just insulted her favorite sport. [oops].
"What about animals? Do you have a pet?" asked Fluttershy.
"I have a pet parakeet named Chirp Chirp, and a dog named Dr. Pepper." responded Hunter.
Pinkie started giggling, gaining attention from the group.
"What's so funny sugarcube?" asked Applejack.
"He named his pet dog... a-a-after a soft drink. That's funny!" exclaimed Pinkie as she started giggling some more.
"Why'd you name him that?" asked Fluttershy, a little curious as to why he named his dog after a soda.
"Because Dr. Pepper is my favorite drink. It's the only doctor where I don't want to keep away." said Hunter as he made the stupid pun.
Pinkie giggled some more at his dumb joke, while the other girls didn't really find it funny.
"I do like to watch TV and play video games, like any normal teenage boy does." added Hunter.
"What's your favorite video game?" asked Sunset.
Hunter looked up in the air, trying to think which was his favorite. He had a lot of games he loved to play, and never actually considered on making one of them his favorite.
"I like a lot of them. Call of Duty, Team Fortress 2, Left 4 Dead, Payday 2, Assassin's Creed Syndicate, I have a bunch of games I like to play." answered Hunter.
"That's understandable." said Sunset. "How about TV? What's your favorite show?"
"Easy. Profound Moments. It's a TV show about 4 guys taking on the zombie apocalypse, and making fun of everything they encounter, making it into, profound moments! It's hilarious, you gotta watch it." answered Hunter.
"You seem to like a lot of things. You like pets, video games, TV, what don't you like?" asked Sunset.
Hunter took another fork full of spaghetti and ate it, making slurping noises as well.
"Well... I hate songs that have to do with lessons. Like you learned how to share, and then some random dude breaks out in some sort of song and just sings about sharing while dancing. I've seen the weirdest places where people sang and dance about life lessons. Once I in this mall up town, and these dudes were dancing for like money and stuff and my friend Rex and I were all confused on what they were dancing. Well the first line I heard from them was something about sharing and caring, and so me and Rex were into this thing just because of the dance, and then we started sharing our food we bought at the food court. Well it turns out the people were talking about sharing needles and drugs and all that. We were pissed that we got fooled into sharing for something that is illegal." explained Hunter.
The girls looked at him in a confused manner, as to what the hell he just said. Hunter however seemed completely oblivious to the fact that he just went on a rant about singing, to something similar that happened in a mall.
Once again, Pinkie giggled and smiled.
"I like that story. Tell us some more." said Pinkie.
Hunter took a sip from his drink and tried to think of something that happened to him back in the past.
He then snapped his fingers as he gained an expression, which probably means he thought of something.
"I ever tell you about the time my buddy Rex tried to become a waiter? Yeah his parents kicked him out of the house because he wasn't making money and so he went on a job hunt that went from pet store worker, to car washer. Well anyways, he landed a job at a restaurant, not one of those fancy 5 star ones, just a simple diner, where he became a waiter. Now you would think that becoming a waiter is easy work, as it turns out, it's HARD! Now they say experience is the best teacher, and experience taught Rex that writing down orders, doesn't necessarily mean you'll get the right food for them. He wrote orders, but still manage to bring the wrong food to the wrong people. He didn't last a DAY in the restaurant, and till this day, he still hasn't found a job yet." explained Hunter as he told the story.
The girls once again, were all in a state of confusion, with Rainbow nearly falling asleep. Pinkie was the only one interested in the story.
"I like that one as well."
"Yeah. Rex sure is a great friend, he's my only friend." said Hunter as he expression went from relaxed to one of sadness.
Sunset saw the quick change in emotion and was curious.
"He's your only friend?" she asked.
"Yeah." he said in a mumbled tone as he took another bite from his spaghetti.
The girls looked a each other before looking back at Hunter.
"You know, we can be your friends." suggested Sunset.
Hearing this, Hunter looked at them one at a time. Friends with girls? With only one guy in a group and his only friends were girls. Not good odds in Hunter's eyes.
"You six girls want to become my friends?" asked Hunter.
Everyone gave agreed by nodding, with Pinkie nodding faster. Hunter put his hand on his chin and thought for a while.
"Well... I gotta get some other friends, right?"
"What do you mean?" asked Sunset.
"Well back in my school, if a guy is friends with girls, he's depicted as... gay. And most of the time it turned out to be true. I'm not gay. I'm not saying no to the suggestion, you guys can be my friends, it's just that I need some... guy friends. You know what I'm saying?" asked Hunter.
"Totally man." said Rainbow.
"If you want, maybe I can get Flash to be friends with you." suggested Sunset.
"Flash Gordon?!" exclaimed Hunter excitingly.
The girls raised their eyebrows on who he was talking about. Hunter noticed their confused expressions and gained one as well.
"You know. Flash Gordon. The Flash. DC Comics."
"No, my ex-boyfriend. Flash Sentry." said Sunset.
"Aww." said Hunter in a sad tone.
"Maybe he can introduce you to his friends as well." said Sunset. She tilted her head to see above Hunter and saw Flash sitting down with his friend. "He's right there. Wanna go talk to him?"
Hunter turned around and saw a kid wearing a black jacket and had blue spiky hair.
"Eh, sure why not." said Hunter as he and Sunset got up.
They then started walking towards the table where Flash was talking to a kid in a red shirt with a brown vest over it. On the vest it had a recycle sign on it. He had blue jeans and green dreadlocks with a gray beanie on him.
"So you haven't seen Micro Chips today?" asked Flash.
"Nah dude." answered the kid.
"Ahem." said Sunset, catching Flash and the kid's attention. "Flash, Sandalwood. I would like you to meet Hunter Blood." Sunset moved her hands to where Hunter would be standing... the keyword being would.
"Sunset there's no one there." said Flash a little confused.
Sunset shot her eyes open and looked to her left and noticed Hunter wasn't there. She got worried and started looking everywhere frantically.
"Where'd he go!?" she exclaimed.
"Woah, look at that dude." said the other kid, presumed Sandalwood.
Flash and Sunset looked to their left and saw Hunter over a table with a group of kids. Hunter had a half empty bottle in his hand and had a confident look on his face. He then flipped the bottle and walked away. The bottle however landed on it's bottom, after a full flip.
Upon impact, the table shook while the kids at the table fell from their seats with drinks splashing in their faces.
Hunter walked over to Sunset who she had a surprised look on her face along with Flash and a slightly surprised Sandalwood. Behind Hunter, the kids were groaning in pain and some were cheering. Hunter however payed no attention to them and looked at the three in front of him.
"What?" he asked.
"How did you- n-n-nevermind. Hunter, I would like you to meet Flash and Sandalwood.
"Hey bro." said Sandalwood.
"Hi." said Flash.
"Wassup." said Hunter.
"I think I'll let you go from here. I'll see you later Hunter." said Sunset as she walked off.
Hunter took the courtesy and sat right next to Sandalwood and cleared his throat and stared at the both of them. They stared back and all got nervous. None of them knew what to talk about. Hunter started whistling while Sandalwood kept looking back and forth around cafeteria while Flash rubbed the back of his head.
"Sooo.... yeah." was all Hunter could say.
"Yeah." responded Flash.
"Hm-hm." said Sandalwood.
They started getting nervous again, with Hunter tapping his fingers on the table.
"So um... heard any good songs?" asked Hunter.
"I was listening a song earlier before I came to school." answered Flash.
"What was the song?" asked Hunter.
"Highway to Hell, by ACDC."
"Aw dude! No way! I love that band!" exclaimed Hunter.
"You do! Me too!"
"I love all their songs! I have all their albums! Even the new stuff that ain't no good!"
"Meh, they're alright." said Sandalwood, obviously not caring for the subject.
Flash and Hunter looked at him, with Flash confused and Hunter giving him a death glare.
"They're alright?" asked Hunter, emphasizing "alright".
"Yeah dude. I mean, I don't really like rock n' roll and all, but I have heard their songs and I just think they're alright bro. Y'know?"
"No I don't know." said Hunter, clearly agitated. "They are the greatest band ever to me. Once I went to their concert with my buddy Rex and we heard them play Highway to Hell, and, well... did you know they allow drugs there. I mean not hardcore methamphetamine but weed and all? Like this dude was smoking the good stuff and he asked me and Rex if we wanted a shot, and me being the smart one between us declined, but my buddy Rex was alright with it and smoked some. Long story short, I drove Rex back home after he nearly got us killed because he kept trying to grab the wheel from my hand, and we almost crashed about three times. Now when he got back home, he passed out on his porch. Now luckily his parents were home and took him inside, and till this day, he declines any drug someone offers him."
"Wait, they allow drugs at ACDC concerts?" asked Flash.
"Well I guess they snuck them in because there were these big security guards up from. Makes you think what great security they have there."
"I don't really like concerts either. They harsh my flow." commented Sandalwood.
"Yeah I feel ya. That was the only concert I've been in. I now normally listen to them online."
"Same here man." said Flash. "Sandalwood isn't much of a rock n' roll type, like he said. He's more of uh..."
"A cool, swift wind, going with the flow kind of dude." finished Sandalwood.
Hunter stared at him like he just said something in another language, clearly confused.
"Huh?" he said raising an eyebrow.
"What he means is that he's a laid back kind of guy." said Flash, making it easier for Hunter to understand.
"OOOHHH! Now it makes sense."
"I figured you'd be the one to get the details later."
"What do you mean?" asked Hunter in an angry tone.
Sandalwood was making cut motions with his hand above his neck, meaning to cut what he said, all while having a frantic look on his face.
"Uh... nothing. So... have any brothers or sisters?" asked Flash, trying to change the subject.
"I have one smart brother that my parents ADORE! Really, they're trying make me into HIM! A smart, well behaved, Air Force kind of guy! I'm not like him man! Why can't my parents accept that!" yelled Hunter as he slammed his fists on the table.
Sandalwood made more cutting motions, still having a frantic look on his face, and pointed to a different direction. Flash looked to his right and noticed he was pointing at the girls, who were all talking about something. Flash turned to Sandalwood once again and saw him mouth the words, "Tall about the girls."
"So uh... how do you like Sunset and her friends? Pretty cool huh?" asked Flash.
Hunter's expression went from anger to one of calmness.
"Eh, they're alright." he answered.
"What about Twilight? Isn't she nice?"
"Bruh I hate that book." said Hunter with lidded eyes.
"No, Twilight."
"Yeah, I know. That book sucks."
"I think he's talking about the student, Twilight Sparkle." pointed Sandalwood.
"Why is everyone's names in this school so wierd!? I've already met 8 people with unrealistic names!? Except for you Flash, you have an abnormal name."
"Thank you?" said Flash in a confused tone, whether or not it was an insult or a compliment.
"If you want to talk about normal, then asked Norman, or what we like to call him, Normal Norman." suggested Sandalwood.
"Who's that?" asked Hunter.
"He wears a orange jacket with gray pants and has a green beanie over his head. Compared to what everyone else wears, he seems normal bro."
"I'll be sure to look out for him." said Hunter. "In the mean time, wanna see me flip a bottle?" Hunter asked as he got up and grabbed the nearest half empty water bottle.
"NOOO!!!" yelled the both of them.
But it was too late, Hunter already flipped the bottle, and the chaos began... again.
Hunter walked around the halls as did many students. He was holding a notepad in his hand with a pen in another, while walking.
"Get friends. Check. Get guy friends. Half-check.... Why is there get kitty litter on this list- I don't even have a cat." said Hunter to himself.
"What did you say to me punk?!" yelled a booming voice, catching Hunter's attention.
Hunter turned the corner to see a big kid wearing a backwards baseball cap, a gray shirt with a fist on it, blue pants and black shoes, with tan skin. He was grabbing what appeared to be a light purple skinned kid wearing glasses with tape in the middle, a yellow long sleeve shirt and white overalls.
"I-I-I-I-I said that y-you're being a jerk Brute." said the kid in some sort of nerd voice.
"Wanna say that again?" asked the kid named Brute as he brought his fist closer to the kid's face.
The glasses wearing kid gulped before getting a scared look on his face. Hunter looked at this scene with a face that looked like he was planning something. He stepped in hoping to scare the bully away before the bell rang, startling him.
"Aw crap. I don't want to be late for my class. Oh well since I'm a new student, I can't get a detention on my first day."
"I can't believe I got detention on my first day, how beautiful." said Hunter in a deadpanned voice with lidded eyes.
"Tell me about it." said a voice.
Hunter turned to his left to see a kid wearing a green beanie and wearing an orange jacket on, sitting in the seat next to him.
"Ms. Harshwinny is super strict." said the kid.
"How strict are we talking about?" asked Hunter.
"She once gave Rainbow Dash a detention as a joke."
"That's not being strict! That's being sadistic!"
The kid chuckled at his response and wiped a tear away. He took in a few deep breaths as he looked at Hunter again. before extending his hand.
"Name's Norman." said the kid.
Hunter took the hand and gave him a firm handshake.
"Hunter. Hunter Blood. I'm new here. You could say I'm, "new blood?"
Norman gave him an unamused look with lidded eyes, clearly not thinking the joke was clever.
"That wasn't funny." he said.
"Like anything I say is funny."
"Hunter! Norman!" yelled a voice.
Both Hunter and Norman turned to see Ms. Harshwinny glaring at them, tapping her shoe on the floor.
"Would you like me to give you another detention Mr. Blood?" asked Ms. Harshwinny.
"Please do. It'll alleviate the boredom of my life." said Hunter, giving her a smile.
"Very well then." said Ms. Harshwinny as she got her clipboard and started writing on it. Hunter however, had his eyes grow as wide as dinner plates.
"Wait! Wait! Wait! Wait! Wait! Wait! I was joking, I was joking! Please don't write anything down." begged Hunter.
"Well seeing how you already have a detention for showing up late, I'll go easy, just next time, keep your yapper shut young man."
"Yes m'am." Hunter said as he leaned back in his seat.
Ms. Harshwinny went back to the board and continued writing down notes while everyone copied.
"Dude, you got off easy. Nobody ever goes off easy by Ms. Harshwinny." whispered Norman.
"It's probably because I'm new." reassured Hunter.
"Still, you're already like, the most popular kid in this class."
"You said me and popular. That's funny." laughed Hunter silently.
"No, I'm serious. Say, if you need anyone to talk to, I'm here for you."
"Osborn, we've talked for 2 minutes and already you consider me as your friend... I like those odds."
"Who's Osborn?" asked Norman, raising an eyebrow.
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG! [sorry]
The school bell rang and everyone walked out of their classes to head outside and go home, as it was the end of the day. Students talking to one another, casual talk, some laughing, some playing football.
Hunter walked out his last period class, which wasn't Ms. Harshwinny, it was Mr. Doodle, his Math teacher, and got out his checklist once again, finishing the check on his, 'get guy friends' part.
Then, all of a sudden, he heard a loud bang, as if someone had a full collision with a set of lockers... I would love to see that. Hunter walked over to the commotion and saw the same purple skin kid with glasses on the floor, with a bruise on the right side of his face.
Then there was another student, the gray skinned buffed up kid standing over him, Brute Force.
"What's the matter wimp? Too weak to get up?" asked Brute in a taunting way.
The kid tried getting up, but to no avail, as Brute kicked him in the stomach once more, making the kid groan loudly in pain. Hunter then felt something snap inside him. He crunched his eyebrows and put the list away as he walked over to the monster.
"What a loser, kid can't even take a few punches. What you gonna do nerd?" asked Brute as he taunted some more.
"Hey!" yelled Hunter.
Brute turned to him and gave him a glare.
"What?!" he yelled in an aggressive way.
Though he was being intimidating, that didn't stop Hunter from kicking Brute Force in his right thigh, completely paralyzing it. Brute yelled in pain as he grabbed his thigh, no longer feeling it. He looked up to see Hunter giving him a death glare, but noticed he had his hand in a fist. Hunter then punched Brute Force in the diaphragm, completely blocking his airway. Brute gasped for air, but couldn't get any. His diaphragm was closed and he couldn't breath at all, he was completely vulnerable to Hunter, who kicked him in the face, knocking him out. Upon impact, one could see his stomach bloat up, meaning his diaphragm got back to it's usual spot. Looks like Hunter knows Krav Maga.
Hunter completely ignored Brute's unconscious body and immediately darted his eyes to the kid on the floor.
"Hey kid, you alright?" asked Hunter as he knelt down to aid the kid, ignoring the stares from everyone that was watching Brute getting taken down.
"I'm sustainable." said the kid.
Hunter blinked in confusion.
"What?" he asked.
"Agh, I'm alright. Thanks for the help uh..." said the kid, not knowing Hunter's name.
"Hunter." he finished.
"I'm Micro Chips." said Micro as he was helped up by Hunter.
"You alright?" asked Hunter.
"Yeah, just a bruised cheek, that's all." answered Micro as he rubbed his cheek.
"It'll heal." reassured Hunter.
Micro looked at the unconscious Brute Force on the floor, gaining a worried look.
"We better go before he wakes up, or else he'll be mad stupendously. Let's get out of this corridor immediately."
Hunter once again blinked in confusion.
"What the hell did you just say?"
"Let's get out of here before Brute wakes up!"
"OOOHHH! That makes sense." said Hunter as the two of them walked out of the hallway. Unbeknownst to them, Brute's right left hand twitched.
"So Micro. Why was that dude using you as a punching bag?" asked Hunter.
"Well, I think it's probably because he thinks I'm a nerd, and bullies me for it." replied Micro Chips.
"I never really liked bullies. I mean, I'm new and all, but still, if I see someone getting bullied, I won't hesitate to do some Krav Maga on them, or some military moves. KYAH!" exclaimed Hunter as he got in a fighting, Kung-Fu stance. "You know what I'm saying?"
"Understood."
"For now on, if I see you getting bullied, I will protect you. I'm your protector, understand?"
"My what?"
"Your protector. Someone who protects you. Trust me, with me as your friend, everyone will think you are the most lit student here in KHS."
"It's CHS."
"Really? I thought Canterlot was spelled with a K."
Micro gave him a lidded eye stare in annoyance. Hunter meanwhile looked in front of him, and noticed 2 familiar faces.
"Hey Heath! Norman!" yelled Hunter as he waved his arm.
Heath and Norman were at their lockers putting their stuff away when they saw Hunter waving at them. They both waved back and walked over to Hunter and Micro Chips. Heath was the first to notice Micro's bruise on his cheek.
"Woah. Micro, what happened?" asked Heath.
"It looks like you had a head on collision with a set of lockers." added Norman.
"Brute Force." said Micro.
The two both realized what he meant. They knew that ever since Sunset Shimmer wasn't queen of the school anymore, Brute Force took her place and became the Tyrant King, terrorizing students all across campus, with Micro was one of his "usual visits".
"Why don't you just tell Principal Celestia?" asked Heath.
"Because he'll kill me if I do." answered Micro.
"And besides, I did some Krav Maga on his ass." bragged Hunter.
Heath and Norman stared in confusion, not knowing what he said.
"Ew." said Norman, thinking it was sexual.
"Norman, Krav Maga means that he just fought it using military tactics." explained Micro Chips.
"Woah, you're in the military?" asked Norman.
"Once." answered Hunter nonchalantly. "You should've seen Brute's face when I knocked him out."
Heath and Norman's eyes grew wide at the last part. Hunter raised an eyebrow as of why they had such a scared look on their face.
"What?"
"You knocked out Brute Force?" asked Heath.
"Well I paralyzed his leg and temporarily blocked his airway, then kicked him in the face. Yeah, why?"
"Dude... you. Are. Dead." said Norman.
"What do you-"
"AAAGGGGHH!!!"
The four all got startled at the yelling. They turned to see Brute coming around the corner, with an extremely pissed off face. If looks could kill, Hunter would've already died. Brute Force ran full speed towards the four, in hopes to brutally beat them.
"Run." said Hunter.
The four kept running through the halls, pushing kids out of the way just so they could get away from the monstrous student, who was not far behind. They ran and ran, often losing breath, but the fear and adrenaline said otherwise. They didn't want to stop, they did not stop, they just kept running. They turned the corner, pushing a kid out of the way, however, Micro Chips fallen. Hunter dialed back to help his friend up and got a good glimpse on how far Brute was from them. Not far at all. Hunter quickly helped Micro to his feet and immediately threw a trash can to stall Brute. It was a success, Brute fell on the trash can, but quickly got up.
Hunter and Micro caught up with Heath and Norman, who were panting and quickly losing stamina. They turned and ran down the stairs, with Norman falling down, but getting up. In the middle of the stairs was Hunter, who was lagging behind, jumped a half a flight of stairs. Normally, a kid would hurt himself, but during this situation, pain was unrecognizable. Hunter did a roll as soon as he got on the bottom and went back to running for his life.
Shortly afterwards, Brute came down, sliding against a row of lockers, busting them. Like Hunter, he didn't feel pain, and kept running after his attacker.
Hunter, Micro, Heath, and Norman all passed by the Main 6, who gave them questionable looks. Soon, Brute Force ran passed them, and they automatically knew why they were running. Dropping their things, they decided to run after them as well, to see if they're gonna be alright.
The four students all saw the entrance/exit doors and put all their strength and force in them to make it to the door.
"Don't look back!" yelled Heath.
Hunter, however, looked back, to see Brute on their tail.
"AAGGGHHH!" yelled Brute Force.
"AGH! I looked back!" yelled Hunter.
The four friends all ran out the door, and Hunter immediately saw Flash Sentry and Sandalwood standing by the horse statue.
"Follow me!" yelled Hunter as the four ran to them.
Flash and Sandalwood both looked at the four guys, but were wondering why they were running. The four all got behind the two students, raising questionable looks on all of them, except Hunter.
"This is your plan? Hide behind Flash and Sandalwood?!" exclaimed Heath.
"Hey." said Flash.
"Sup dude." said Sandalwood.
"Well what other options do we have? It's not like this giant horse statue is some sort of portal we can go through!" yelled Hunter.
"Um, actually Hunter-"
Flash never finished his statement as he was interrupted by the sounds of doors opening and yelling. The two looked to see Brute Force on the set of stairs, steam coming out of his redden face of anger. Brute marched his way to Flash and Sandalwood, causing the four to cower in fear. He stood in front of the two, who gave him scared looks.
"Out of the way." Brute said.
Flash and Sandalwood both glanced at the four, who all gave terrified expressions. The two looked at each other before nodding, knowing what to do.
"No." Flash said sternly.
"What?!" exclaimed Brute.
"You aren't hurting our friends dude." said Sandalwood.
"These four are your friends? They're wimps!"
"They might be wimps in your eyes, but in our eyes, they're our friends, and friends stick together." said Flash as he gave Brute a cold, hard stare.
"Like peanut buttah and jelly!" exclaimed Hunter.
"Y- yes. What he said." said Flash, a little confused.
Brute Force leaned in, mere centimeters away from Flash's face. Brute gave Flash a deadly stare, and as I said before, if looks could kill, Flash would be dead.
"You're lucky I only want that Hunter guy." he said.
He then looked at Hunter, giving him the same cold glare he gave to Flash.
"Tomorrow, after school... right here." was all Brute Force said before walking off.
Flash and Sandalwood waited for him to go, until it was safe to gasp for air, holding in their breaths out of fear.
"What did he mean by that?" asked Hunter.
The 5 guys looked at him with sympathetic looks. They all knew what Brute Force meant, but since Hunter was new, he didn't know what was coming for him.
"Hunter... you're fighting Brute Force." said Flash.
"So! Who cares?! I took him down in 5 seconds. Not to mention, I'm mil-i-tary, trained! I got this in the bag." exclaimed Hunter, enthusiastically.
"Hunter. The last time someone fought Brute Force, they ended up in the hospital." warned Flash.
"So? You come out of the hospital eventually." said Hunter with a smile.
"That was 3 years ago."
"Well I guess he learned to avoid Brute Frost. Me? I don't learn anything! I just keep trying, and trying, and trying and-"
"The guy died of his injuries in the hospital."
Hunter's brown pupils shrunk down as he eyes grew as wide as dinner plates. The thought of dying made his heart almost stop, and his whole body quivered in fear.
"W-what?" Hunter asked, clearly in fear and shock.
"Hate to break it to you dude, but, you're a dead bro." said Sandalwood.
Hunter gulped.
"Dear Lord, why did I ever leave Los Angeles?" asked Hunter to himself.
